Shadewood pressure point

After emptying his bowels the wolf tried to escape the ditch that he'd slipped in to, however even with the inundation of ice and snow he could not get a decent foothold and kept on slipping back down in to the self-made mire.

Do you want me to help you out? offered the man, as Stone made one more attempt and another failure. The snow was becoming a streaky mess and Stone could feel some of that ick factor clinging to his fur each time gravity forced him back in to it.

You would do that? The boy stopped his struggling, his scrappy body angled oddly while he looked up at the other man. If you can get me out I'll do anything you want! And I promise I'm not always like this, whatever this was, I just ate something a few days ago that really upset my system. I haven't been able to stop... going, y'know... since.

Maybe they'd both be better off if Stone was left in that ditch.
